None of these.  I subscribe to the RSS feed through Google Reader and 
these changes happen without them showing up there at all.  Some of them 
have been a few days before I notice them, so it's not a timing thing.

However I've turned moderation on for that node.  Didn't know about 
that!

"Well our problem here is that right from day one the War on Terror
 has been based on the wasp's nest principle, which thinks that the
 best thing to do if you've been stung by a wasp is to follow that
 wasp back to its nest and hit the nest with a big stick, and then
 keep repeatedly hitting the nest with a big stick until the stripey
 little shit has learnt its lesson."
